Davis and staff working behind the scenes to line-up potential summer signings

Steve Davis has recently returned from a short-break in Cyprus and has continued to line-up potential summer signings for the club. The Alex boss admits that he won’t be rushed into signing players. He will instead take more time in making sure he gets the right players possessing the right characters into the club.

Davis did most of his transfer policy as early as possible last season with only Anthony Grant and after a long, drawn out process Bradden Inman arriving late on in the summer.

Steve told the club’s official web-site: “It is a waiting game at the moment for a lot of clubs and a lot of players. I know some clubs have done their business early, as we did last season, but I want to be sure this year that we know as much as we can about the players.

He added: “What I will do is be as patient as they are and make sure we can get the best ones in we can.”
